Description

Supported retention scenarios for WORM and non-WORM Arctera Unified Platform customers.

WORM storage-specific scenarios

• Setting retention of items as these are archived:
  • Default retention
  • Per user
  • AD Group membership
  • Classification-based retention
  • Search and tagging
• Extending retention of items:
  • Search and tagging (WORM policy on items is not updated)
  • Classification-based retention (via paid Reindex option)
• Shortening retention of items:
  • Not supported after the item has been archived.
  • Supported only at the time of archiving. During archiving, every item is assessed/evaluated for its retention period. If the retention period of an item is shorter than the tenant-level WORM policy (typically 7 or 10 years), both periods are set to the same value. This process occurs automatically, without any direct involvement from end users. It is executed using one of the following scenarios according to the policy.
    • Per User
    • AD Group Membership
    • Classification-based retention

Non-WORM storage-specific scenarios

  • Default retention

  • Classification-based retention (via paid Reindex option)
• Shortening retention of items
  • Search and tagging
